Cantigny in Focus is an annual event for amateur photographers. The contest began in 2006 with the express purpose of capturing every part of Cantigny through our visitors' eyes. We hope our visitors will stretch their photographic craft and shoot truly one-of-a-kind shots of our beautiful park through the lens of their own unique perspective. All submitted photos must be taken at Cantigny. Photos are judged on uniqueness.
How it works:
Submitted images must be from the grounds of Cantigny Park in Wheaton, IL the 500-acre former estate of Robert R. McCormick and part of the Chicago-based Robert R. McCormick Foundation.
The top 40 images selected from the 2012 edition of Cantigny in Focus will be on display in the Visitors Center gallery from Feb 1 - Dec 31. Take a look at the gallery to the left to see the 2012 selections. The three grand prize winners will again be determined by the public, with voting conducted throughout 2013. Be sure you stop in to vote. The winners from 2011 are below.
Your votes are in and we have our Top 3 Winners for the 2011 Cantigny in Focus Photo Contest!
Congratulations to the winners and a BIG thank you to all who submitted.
